    hey guys. i wanted to get everyone's thoughts. should i order a 2006 murcie roadster e-gear or 2006 gallardo spider e-gear? or 2006 ferrari 430 spider f-1? i was thinking green murcie roadster, flat orange gallardo spider or yellow 430 spider. i currently have a 2003 silver/bordeaux 360 spider 6spd and a 2004 metallic orange 6spd gallardo.

    Louie,

    Get the Gcar!! ull get a better price and faster, and it looks better. Also a bit more rare! the Murci would be great, but at least wait for the hardtop; that would be the best option, for me the current softtop would be a dealbreaker.

    Either way you can't go wrong! Your garage is already beautiful and it can't get any worse.

    gallardo, unless your open to waiting a bit for the F430. If your going to pay 300k for a 430, get the Gallardo

    Let's see...

    430 spider vs. G-spider. Which do you drive more right now? The 360 or G-car? That should help you a little with that choice. BTW, which one DO you drive more? I'd like to know.

    As for the murci roadster, I have a 360 spider f1 and a murci roadster e-gear. Have driven the gallardo for comparision. The murci roadster is unbelievable. It is kind of stupid for me to say the murci is better than 430/G-car because the MSRP is obviously higher. There is no comparision. If you buy a roadster, I guarantee you will be grinning from ear to ear everytime you drive it. You will always prefer it over your 360 and gallardo.

    If the weather is good enough to put the top down on the 360, I won't, the 360 is a joke -- I will take the roadster out instead.

    You have a 360 and a G-car, try something different, go for the murci roadster. Yes, you won't be able to drive it in poor weather because the top is a pain in the butt, but who cares, you have other nice cars to drive.

    i just got a bentley gt 3 months ago, so i have been driving that alot. but i deff use my 360 more than my gallardo. i just saw a silver 430 coupe parked near my house and it looked hot! just was reading the august issue of stuff magazine and they had a titanium 430 spider which was crazy. the biggest drawback of the murcie roadster was the top, thats why i was considering the gallardo. but being that i have one already, i wasn't sure if i should get another one. i think the murcie roadster is deff the hottest car out there right now, but with no available hard top yet, can't take it to the hamptons for the weekend... if i had a 6 car garage maybe i would get all 3!

    If u have the bentley (superb daily) why not go for the M roadster, definitely way cooler than the F430 that are rapidly spreading to the US, and will soon be as common (is any ferrari in absolute terms?) as the 360.....M is sooo hot!

    Im a diehard Ferrari fan, but Ive been thinking latley and I think the Murcie Roadster is the best looking supercar out right now, Lambo and Audi scored with this one.....

    Keep the two great cars you have.

    The 430 will only be more power and some refinements while the Gallardo fits the gap between the 8 and 12 cylinders. Get the Murcie with the idea to get the hardtop when available.

    The Gallardo does not have the signature vertical doors, so I suppose they have lost a bit of their originality along the way.

    um, i might be talking outta my arse (again :rolleyes: ) but i've always considered the scissor door technique to be function-over-form, in that it was more an innovation to allow a human passage into the cockpit than for the wank factor.

    thank you everyone for the great feedback. hopefully the murcie roadtser comes out w/ that hardtop which will make my decision alot easier. now, for the next question. my local porsche dealer has a black/terrocata carrera gt. this car is deff hot. msrp is $448k, i could get it for $430k maybe a little less. does anyone think a porsche is worth almost half a million??? i could be in that car this week, maybe drive until the roadster next summer...
